Nathan Fielder, the star and creator of cringe masterpiece Nathan for You, hires a group of artists, performers and other professionals to help him manufacture a life so he, and the complete strangers he interacts with or ropes in, can “rehearse” life’s key moments. Bring nerves of steel and plenty of tissues. / TW The notables Adapted from a book by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Sheri Fink, expect Five Days at Memorial to be both harrowing and hugely compelling.

Set during Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the series follows the doctors and nurses in a New Orleans hospital who were stranded with patients when the storm hit, and with no chance of rescue, had to make unimaginable decisions that would follow them for years. It seems we can’t get enough of “based on true events” drama at the moment, but Apple TV+’s new series Five Days at Memorial is a story you wish hadn’t happened. This promises to be a dark adventure across the time and space continuum, and also possibly into your nightmares? Keep the lights on, you’ll be fine. / Tara Ward Five Days at Memorial (on Apple TV+ from August 12) He sounds like a lot of fun, much like a good nap. After years of imprisonment, a king of dreams named Morpheus heads off on a journey to find out what has been stolen from him while he was in the sleep slammer and claim all his power back. Sadly, this is not a show about Mr Sandman the jaunty pop song with impressive harmonies, but a new dark fantasy series based on a DC comic by Neil Gaiman.

The series, the latest instalment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, follows Jennifer Waters (Orphan Black’s Tatiana Maslany), the cousin of the Hulk who also somehow has his powers. What if Ally McBeal had superpowers? That appears to be the question that She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is answering, and I for one cannot wait.
Catherine McGregor She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (on Disney+ from August 17) But do get ready for a lot of CGI dragons – this was the era before they all but died out, remember – and plenty of Targaryen-blond wigs, including on stars Matt Smith, Paddy Considine and newcomer Emma D’Arcy. House of the Dragon is set about 300 years prior to the events covered in the original, so don’t expect any familiar faces to pop up this time around. A little over three years since the last, hugely disappointing episode of Game of Thrones – during which time HBO green-lit, cast and shot a whole other spinoff, abandoned after just one episode – we’re returning to Westeros, and I couldn’t be more excited. House of the Dragon (on Neon from August 22) What are you going to be watching in August? We round up everything coming to streaming services this month, including Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+, Neon and TVNZ+.
